ADEQUACY OF LABORATORIES IN THE CENTER OF MATHEMATICS, COMPUTATION AND COGNITION AT UFABC: project of Installment for Institutional Infrastructure Costs for Research of 2022

Abstract

The Federal University of ABC (UFABC) was created on July 26, 2005 (Law n. 11,145). Despite being considered a young universit, it already has considerable infrastructure to support Research activities, characterized by the institutional support office, research integrity office and, in addition, strategies for open access to publications. The support of funding agencies is essential for the continuity and improvement of research at a level of excellence and to supply some deficiencies found. Therefore, in order to meet the current needs of the Center for Mathematics, Computing and Cognition, we present a project to use the Institutional Installment for Infrastructure Costs for Research of the Center for Mathematics, Computing and Cognition (CMCC). This proposal focuses on: (1) repair of two -80ºC ultrafreezers used for storage and conservation of biological samples and reagents; (2) costly microscope maintenance; (3) repair of the cryostat in the microtomy room of the neurohistology laboratory; (4) repair of classical conditioning equipment used in neuroscience behavioral tests; (5) repair of nobreaks in the Cellular and Molecular Neurobiology laboratory; (6) repair of workstations in the Computational Biology and Bioinformatics laboratory and (7) Acquisition of air conditioner apparatus and dehumidifier for the herbarium . This infrastructure will be pivotal for the development of research activities with an inter and multidisciplinary character, with three main axes: i) research in neurosciences with an emphasis on neurobiology and psychobiology using experimental animals; ii) computational and mathematical modeling of biological systems, iii) research on cognitive processes. These adjustments will be essential to maintain excellence in research. (AU)
